Good friend, don't aqeeze no very tight, There's room enough for two ; Keep in sour mind I have a right To live as well as you. you're rich and strong, I poor and weak, But think yon I presme,. When only this pose boon I ask A little elbow rooem 'I1s such as you-the rich strong, If yen but had the Could give the wys lift along And help bi the hill. But nio-ye7obtl, crowd and drive; You stool, and fret and fume; Ar'epou the only man alive In want of elbow room t But thus it is on Itfe's rounad path, self seems the God of all; The streng will crash the weak to death, The big devour the small. Far better be a rich man's hound A valet, serf or groom That struggles 'mid the mass aroun5, When we've no elbow room. Up heart, my boy I don't mind the shbock ; Up heart, and push along! Your skin will soon grow rough with knocks, Your limbs with labor strong. Then there's a hand unseen to aid; A star to light the gloom ; Up heart, my boy ! nor be afraid Strike out for elbow room I And when you see, amid the throng. A fellow-toiler slip. Just give him, as you pass along, A brave and kindly grip. Let noble deeds, though poor you be. Your path in life illume ; ALd, with true Christian charity, Give others elbow room. [From Our Own Correspondent.J OUR 1$S1K LETTER. DuaBLo, Oct. 19th, 1875. Father O'Ketffe, the suspended priest of Cal lan, has at last been taken in hands by his parishioners. The parochial house in which he persisted in living was wrecked a few days since, the forniture was put out in the street, and but that be is guarded by police, Father O'Keeffe himself would by this be banished from the toWn. The Bishop advised the people not to have recourse to violent measures, but they-could not longer tolerate an exeommuni cated priest is tbelr midst. Twenty-eight of them have this day been returned for trial to the aseies on a charge of riot, but no doubt they were prepared for that, and possibly twenty-eight more may be treated in a similax manner before Father O'Keefe has been ban ished, but banished he will be whatever it costs. He has outraged all Catholio feeling and put himself beyond the pale of mercy by his attacks on his superiors and ptis leagiong himself with the Protestant bigots of the country. The Protestant journals are wild at the conduet of the people of Callas, and loudly call for the interference of the executive. It may be useful to note that all along those journals have been representing that the people whom they now denounce were on the side of Father O'Keeffe and ranged against their Bishop. The falsehood is now exposed to the world, and hence the anger of the journals. But what avails their anger Not all the military force in Great Britain can now restore Father O'Keeffe to the position he once occu pied as an esteemed parish prieas in the affec tions of his people or the confidence of his u periors. The Secularist or Queen's University in Ire land has just been engaged in the annual operation of conferring degrees. The Convo cation of the University has also been holding Its annual meeting. On previous occasions I have dealt at length on this topic; I therefore need only say now that the proceedings at both meetings prove that the institution is thorough y anti-Catholic and continues to be spurned y the great bulk of the Catholics of this ountry. At Convocation, Mr. F. H. O'Donnell, L A., (ex M. P. for Galway), renewed his an nal protest, as a Catholic, against the mixed ystem. In reply, a Presbyterian graduate amed McCall applied the term "tyrannical" o the maxims of the Catholic Church in the atter of education, and said the Catholic shops wished to bind the Catholic youth of reland hand and foot. Language like this is ntionally employed by the secularists in heir newspapers; but this time it is uttered t a meeting of a University in which it is retended that nothing offensive to any man's ligious convictions is uttered I But after all, ow can McCall be blamed when we And that atholice were present and never uttered a ord of protest. I do not allude to Mr. O'Don ell, who did protest, but to Dr. Sullivan, resident of Queen's College, Cork, and for merly Professor in the Catholic University, and to Mark O'8haughnessy, Professor of Law n Corlk and a member of the Catholic Come ries Committee of Dublin. This O'Shaogh essy, by the way, is as thoroughly rotten and bontemptiblo a little Whig as lives on the soil f Ireland, and I am told that, in his capacity f member of the Cemeteries Committee, he is ontinnally putting obstruotions in the way of hose who desire to ornament thegravesof the atriot dead in Glasnevin. I think I can pro mise that this little rascal will be exposed at the next meeting of the Convocation by a Catholic graduate who wa not present at the last, and who has some important revelations to make concerning the anti-Catholic spirit which governs in the Queen's University. At themeeting of the University for the confer ring of degrees, the bchief feastore waes a speech from the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Sir Iichael HL Beach, a leather-beaded fellow, o, although an advocate of religios eduoca lion in EAglotaid, on Friday last spoke it sup port of this secularhit University for Ireland. as, however, he did not announce that more Soney would be givena to the University, be wis not at all heartily receive,. As to the Catholic University, thie academic ession opened on Sunday last, with High Mass a the University Chapel and a sermon from the Rector, Dr. Woodlock. The day after the ide4~t,,n eam.eiatisn4jj, omosneteed, and I understand that a oonad sl number matti eulated. The Boar f the University has Just performed an which lb likely to make the institution 1 more popular than it is. In response a memorial signed almost exola sivel.yy laymen, the Bishops have decided to r tablish the chair of Irish, vacant since the eath of O'Curry, and to appoint thereto Mr Bryan O'Looney, the best living Irish scholar The annual coffference and the annual public meeting of the Sunday Closing (of publio houses) Assooiation were held yesterday under very favorable auspices. At the conference Sir D. Corrigan, Bart., presided; several most intluential persons attended, and letters were read in support of the movement from a large nqmber of leading members 'of Parliament in Great Britain as well as Ireland. At the public meetin( the attendance was larger, and at least equally influential, and a very remarkable speech was delivered by the Rev. Professor Smyth, the Presbyterian minister, who repre sents County Derry in the Liberal interest in the House of Commons. This gentleman was returned to Parliament as a Whig, but he de clared last night that, if measures demanded by the Irish nation in the same manner as the Sunday Closing bill is demanded, were refused by the Imperial Parliament, he would become a Iome Ruler. I can say, having been present, at the meeting, that the only genuine cheer during the week was evoked by this declara tion. To-day a deputation waited upon the Chief Secretary for Ireland from the Sunday Closing Association, to get him to assist the Association in the next session of Parliament. Mr Sullivan, M. P., Professor Smyth, M. P., and other gentlemen, spoke to Sir Miohael Beach forcibly and well, but, of course, they got no satisfactory answer. My own opinion is that the Government will next seesion contrive some means whereby the Sunday Closing bill may pass into law without their active support. J. J. C. THE IO.KS OF LA TRAPPE. The following letter from an esteemed friend of the STAR, who is now revisiting his native land after an absence of forty years, will no doubt interest many of our readers who, like him, "have longed" to see again the noble institutions of dear old Ireland. His descrip tion of the life of the Monks of La Trappe affords another proof of the charity and seal of the monastio orders, and is at the same time a noble refutation of the oft repeated calumny that the Church fosters ignorance and that the monks lead a self-indulgent, lazy life. MouxrT MkaLrzY Anszar, C County Waterford, Ireland, Oct. 3, 1875. Here I am, among the Monks of the Order of La Trappe, men whose lives are more angelic than human, and whose existence is a constant reminder to worldlings of an Eternal Master who will not delay to reward as allat a proper time. I have been here five days, and must leave this evening for Cork; but the thought of my departure fills me with sadness, for I feel like a sailor who is obliged to put to sea in stormy weather leaving behind him a safe and quiet harbor. -At 2 o'clock in the morning the monks rise for prayer and spiritual reading, and as the sound of their voices is heard through the cor ridors of the monastery, it is like the wail of a mother for an erring child. And surely these holy men are doing penance for many poor sinners in the world, who, according to Father Faber, may be at last ndebted to them for a death-bed conversion. At Complin the monks sing the grand old Gregorian Chant in its purest style, and to hear the solemn harmony swelling through the dimly-lightpd church, after night has settled on the mountain-side, brings tears to the eyes of all. The monks are constantly employed either in prayer or labor, and they are always silent, except the guest master and a few who attend to gaests. Among themselves, I have learned that every half-hour the Superior notifies them to raise their thoughts to God-thus constantly uniting the seal to its eternal recompense. Each guest has his own room, and certain rules and regulations which he most observe while he is in the monastery They are also silent while withia the walls. The guests receive three meals a day: for breakfast, tea, bread, eggs and butter; for dinner, mutton, beef, potatoes, bread, water, or ale or porter; for supper, tea, bread and butter. 8och is the bill of fare for the wanderer or the guest, while the noble, holy, hard-working monk gets only one meal and a collation each day. They never use meat, and the only drink they allow themselves is water, and yet from S in the morning until 8 at night they work on a bleak mountain side. But while they starve themselves, they continue to extend great hos pitalihty to strangers and to the poor. The number of guests averages daily about twelve; bhut they also feed about sixty poor children. These children are taught by these holy monks gratuitously, and are furnished with a good dinner, and a piece of bread is given them in the evening when going home. Do you find anything like this noble charity among our Protestant friends and yet they are the first, I believe, to declaim about the ignorance of the Irish and the laziness of the monks in general. These monks make their own bread and but ter, grind their own wheat, burn their own lime,-in fact they make everything they use. Their 600 acres, on the side f a barren moun tain, bloom like a lovely garden, where you find all grain grows in this conatry, and all vegetables used in the monastery. They have planted fine groves, buill excellent stone and clay fences (called here ditohes), the latter being covered with white thorn bushes or forre. Their bakery and dairy are models of clean linees and neatness, and while you admire all that they accomplish, you wonder how they can do so much on only I1 mealqa day. Their bed is a narrow board with a pillow of straw, and they sleep with the habit on, like travelers who expect at any moment the summons that leads them onward. No wonder that the visitor here feels he is in a holy place, no wonder that the very air seems holy, and that everything around breathes of Heaven and God. These monks came from France about forty I two years ago, when driven out by the fuary of the revolutionary storm that desolated that fair land. Then they numbered but three, now they are, I believe, over one hundred in the Often duriong my life, while in the swamps of Louisiana or in the woods of Mississippi, I have longed to visit a motastery in my own land ones more. Thank God. my wish bhas been granted at last, sad tears fill my eyes to-night as I listen to the sweet chanting of the monks and think of the still, silent, roofless ruius that are seattered over poor Ireland: our noble Tintern, for instance, and piotoresque Dun brody, with scores of similar abbeys wbose silence has been nobroken for three hundred years.

It shows that the next Presidential election is to be one of the most close and doubtful, and therefore one of the most strenuous and exciting that has ever oc cpred in the history of our politis. As things now stand, judged by the latest elections in all the States, the Democratio party would elect the next President by thesiender major ity of seven in the electoral college. A Nlw Wooaxrn 's Crrr.-The success which has attended the efforts of the Artisans, Laborers, and General Dwellings Company in providing in various parts of England im proved dwellings for the working-olTases, and also in erecting the first workmen's oilty at Shaftesbury-park, has led to the commence ment of an undertaking in the west of London which will outvie in magnitude and lmport anse anything of the kind ever previously at tempted. On the Shaftesbry-park estate, which is now fart approaching completion, house accommodation is provided for a popula tion of 8 000 inhabitants; but in the new es tate, celled Queen's-park, situated neas the Harrow-road, on which oAerations have now been actively commenced, it is intended to erect a workmen's city for not less than 16,000 inhabitantsa. The earchiteotural, sanitary, and other prominent festoures which have rendered the estate at Lavender-hill so attraotive are to be reproduced st Qceen's-park. The site is well situated, and Irt speaks awell for the suo cess of the ondertaking that seven now, when the fouondations of some of t e houses are only being laid, upwards of 1,000 names have been reeiveld of persons desirous of oeoupying them when they are completead. The Qaeen'm park estate wil diffrjdr in only one respect from that st Shafteebury-park, Inamuoh as it will be onustrueted on the American asvenue prin ciple, with wide roadways, planted throughout their entire length with trees. It is intended to build od it all the necessary adjunct of a mer town. It is anticipated that her MaJesty will lay the first stone of the estate early In next spring, blt meantime the work of erection will be actively conducted.

An oecurresce of. this nature *ecurred ao Monday at a cottee mill at Bollington, near Macclesfield. The ma chinery suddenly bolted like a runaway horse, and caused a general panic. It ap pears that from some cause "not at present thoroughly understood" the steam from the boilers overcame the control of the gover nors of the engine, and the machinery be gan in consequence to move at suchb aspeed that the minders threw their males out of gear, and by so doing precipitated the cat astrophe they were trying to avoid. The rapid revolutions of the engine caused the fly-wheel to break in pieces, and one huge fragment dashed upwards through the floor of a grindil:g room above, and then through the rotr. coming down again through another p,lrtion of the roof. The other eegm.r.H as ti(h wheel were hurled through the wl:*,. rltd altogether the building was wlrt r, i to such an extent that the walls i;i ,oiie puts fell in, and the room above and tIln r,,of were deumolished. A complete starlencde took place among the harndl,-who ntumoer about oue hundred and fifty, and they iushed out of the room in the wildrst conlusion. 'Happily, no live were lost, but it is fully expected that the result of the casualty will be a three months' stoppage of neatly all work at the mill, the machinery of which it is to be hoped will be brought under some kind of control before it is put into action again.
